Building work in South Ockendon
South Ockendon is where VAA Construction is based, so a job here is on our doorstep and we can get out to look at it quickly.
South Ockendon is surrounded by Metropolitan Green Belt, so extensions and outbuildings on the edge of the town are looked at closely, while most rear extensions and loft conversions on the residential streets follow the normal householder rules. Most of what we are asked for here is rear and side extensions to post-war semis and terraces, with everything below available alongside it and every trade carried out by our own people.
